Hi,

I was having a look at the MR for pb2017 R3 (build 1951). I wanted to know which bugs had been fixed and if it's really needed to install, since we're about to release to a customer.

I looked in particular at this  bug: https://www.appeon.com/standardsupport/search/view?id=1058

Indeed, was able to reproduce the bug in pb12.6 (already upgraded 2017 with the MR). In pb 2017 it indeed seems to have been solved with the MR.
While testing this I found some strange behaviour of tab controls though:
- Looking at the pb help on tab controls and its the clicked() event, the help seems wrong at first, as it speaks of "tab pages", but when reading on, it became "kind of" clear to me: the clicked event of the tab control, is "somehow" propagated to the tab pages when you click on the label of a tabpage (or viceversa?). BUT ...

I found out that the clicked of the TAB is NOT executed if there is a MessageBox() in the selectionchanging or selectionchanged event. Even using POST for the messagebox doesn't make a difference: the clicked of the TAB is not fired.

This happens with PB12.6, 2017 and 2019.

Can anyone explain this to me? It's not very important, but the tab controls seem pretty weird to me and I'd like to understand them better.

I've attached a zip with a pb2019 version of the sample provided in the link to ticked 1058 (see above). If you want a version for 2017 or 12.6. The OP (Jason Howat) of the ticket posted a sample for 2017 and Marco Meoni made a similar one for 12.6.

regards
